Bewitched [videorecording] / Columbia Pictures presents a Lucy Fisher and Douglas Wick/Penny Marshall production ; a film by Nora Ephron ; produced by Douglas Wick, Lucy Fisher, Penny Marshall, Nora Ephron ; written by Nora Ephron & Delia Ephron ; directed by Nora Ephron.
A feature film adaptation based on the long-running ABC television series. It tells the story of Isabel, a naïve, good-natured witch, determined to disavow her supernatural powers and lead a normal life. At the same time, across town, Jack Wyatt a tall, charming actor is trying to get his career back on track. He sets his sights on an updated version of the beloved 1960s situation comedy Bewitched, re-conceived as a starring vehicle for himself in the role of the mere-mortal Darrin. Fate steps in when Jack accidentally runs into Isabel. He is immediately attracted to her and her nose, which bears an uncanny resemblance to the nose of Elizabeth Montgomery, who played Samantha in the original TV version of Bewitched. He becomes convinced she could play the witch Samantha in his new series. Isabel is also taken with Jack, seeing him as the quintessential mortal man with whom she can settle down and lead the normal life she so desires.
